Canadian Alliance of Business Travel

Education and Professional Development

NBTA Canada hosts a series of one-day Education Days in cities across Canada (Montreal, Calgary, Toronto) each year as well at our Annual Conference in Toronto each Spring.  Our programs and subject matter for each educational event are carefully selected by our Educational Advisory Council (EAC) to match the needs of their fellow Canadian business travel buyers, managers and supplier partners. 

 

NBTA Canada provides you with the tools you need to be a more valuable and better informed business travel management professional with responsibilities in the Canadian marketplace. 

 

The Canadian Fundamentals of Business Travel Management program was successfully launched in 2007. The Fundamentals course is an introduction to the primary components of managing a companies’ travel program, including driving savings, using technology to increase efficiency, measuring program effectiveness and mitigating risk by tracking travelers. Coursework is completed on-line, or in-class, or workbook format after which students can take an on-line exam. Upon successful completion of the exam, participants receive the CTE designation. Cost for NBTA members is $395, Non-members $545 and Exam Fee $100 (all subject to 5%GST).

 

As the Canadian arm of the National Business Travel Association (NBTA), our education programs compliment eachother's.  With their innovative, industry-leading education programs we equip business travel professionals around the world with the know-how they need to anticipate daily challenges and to navigate successfully though a constantly changing environment. NBTA has the only Certification program (CCTE) and Global Leadership Program (GLP) masters equivalent in North America.

 

All of our Education Days and Annual Conference are NBTA approved Certified Corporate Travel Executive (CCTE) electives which may be applied toward your CCTE designation.
